ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. (AP) — The Buffalo Bills have a contract offer already prepared in a bid to sign Miami Dolphins tight end Charles Clay once the NFL's free agency period opens Tuesday.
Last week, Buffalo acquired running back LeSean McCoy — the NFL's 2013 rushing leader — in a trade with Philadelphia. In January, they took a gamble to improve their offensive line by signing guard Richie Incognito,Air Max 90 Essential White And Black Mens, who had been out of football since the middle of the 2013 season for his involvement in a bullying scandal with the Dolphins.
Clay will become an unrestricted free agent, though the Dolphins have the right to match any offers after awarding the player a transition tag last week. The move ensured that Clay will make at least $7 million this season.
At 6-foot-3, and 255 pounds,Cheap Air Max 90 Men Shoes, Clay has the prototypical size and catching ability of a tight end that would fit the run- and short-pass oriented offense the Bills are introducing under new coach Rex Ryan and incoming coordinator Greg Roman.
The Bills' offer cannot be made until after the NFL's signing period opens. Under NFL rules, teams were barred from having any contact with Clay or his representatives during the league's three-day negotiating period that opened on Saturday because the player was still under contract with the Dolphins.
A person familiar with discussions informed The Associated Press of the Bills' plans on Tuesday. The person spoke on the condition of anonymity because the team has not revealed its intentions,Cheap Huarache Shoes For Men.
The Bills, coming off a 9-7 finish, have already been busy upgrading an offense that finished 26th in the league last year. Coach Rex Ryan and offensive coordinator Greg Roman were hired in the offseason. |
